The Difference Between Strategy And Tactics

Whenever you’re talking about SEO or digital marketing, it’s incredibly important to understand the difference between strategy and tactics. Most business owners (and even a lot of marketers) don’t understand the difference between the two. If you don’t know the difference, then you’re likely to make mistakes in your digital marketing efforts, or to even completely waste time doing things that won’t matter.

Greg’s Local SEO Presentation from David Kain’s Conference

Welcome back to another episode of Local Search Tuesdays. This week, we’re sharing Greg’s slides from the recent Kain Automotive conference in Lexington, Kentucky.

A few weeks back, Greg got to head back to Lexington for one of our favorite automotive events of the year – David Kain’s clients and friends workshop. It’s always a killer conference, but this time he really upped the bar. The first night, we got to tour the Castle and Key bourbon distillery, and the second afternoon we got to head out to the horse races.

But also, there were some amazing conference presentations, and as always, we wanted to share Greg’s here in this week’s video…
So here we go – it’s about half an hour, but it’s packed with a ton of awesome tips, so enjoy!


Suds and Search 110 | John Doherty, Founder of Credo

Also available as a Podcast:

Our guest on this episode of Suds & Search is John Doherty, Founder of Credo.

John spent the early part of his career as a digital marketer both in-house and agency side. He earned important job titles and gained recognition within the industry and then decided to go in a different direction entirely.

John started Credo in 2013. Credo matches agencies with qualified prospects from within Credo’s network. The value-proposition is very clear – Since they qualify the agencies they work with, Credo works as an ally to companies trying to find a new agency partner. From the agency’s point of view, they’ll have a reliable flow of new sales prospects each month. Smart.

As far as we know, Credo is the only SEO/PPC Agency Broker out there. We’re going to spend some of our conversation with John talking about how he even came up with the idea for Credo and how the business has grown over the years.

Because of the different roles he’s had, John is a great person to talk to about a range of things going on in the industry. We filmed this interview at a particularly crazy time for hiring. The demand for high quality digital marketers has never been more intense.

We’ll ask John about the market right now and how agencies can fill important roles.

Grab something cold to drink and join us for a conversation with John Doherty. We’ll have a wide ranging conversation about agency life, do a little cost-benefit analysis for SEO and PPC, and spend some time talking about a famous pet play date.
